Halloween Site Updates!

Well here is the third Halloween Updates!
Quests:
Part 4 of 5 has been released!! Click Here to go to the 4th part of the quest! This quest is all about Halloween!
Here is some facts that will help you through the quest:
- A spider was rolled in butter and used as cure for diseases such as leprosy and the plague. Tasty!
- Halloween is the witches' New Year and is called Samhian.
- The Los Altos, Ca., school system banned all Halloween celebrations because of the holiday's roots in pagan tradition.
- The original idea started in 1950 in Philadelphia, when a Sunday school class had the idea of collecting money for needy children when trick-or-treating. They sent the money they made, about $17, to UNICEF (United Nations Children Fund), which was inspired by the idea and started a trick-or-treat program in 1955.
- Bram Stoker's creation "Dracula" was based on the life of Prince Vlad Tepes (1431-1476). He was also called Vlad the Impaler since he had a bad habit of impaling his victims on stakes. The name "Dracula" is Romanian for Devil's son. Vlad Dracula's father was a knight of the Order of the Draco or dragon, so Dracula also translates as "the Son of Draco".
- The word "witch" is derived from the word "wicca" which means wise one.
- Black cats were originally believed to be witches' familiars who protected the witches' powers from negative forces.
- This great song written by Bobby "Boris" Pickett and Lenny Capizzi reached number one on the Billboard Charts for two weeks in 1962, and then returned to the charts in 1970 and 1973.
- Hocus Pocus" starred Bette Midler, Kathy Najami, and Sarah Jessica Parker as three witches come back from the dead after 300 years.
Here are the rest of the quests you might want to also do and the dates for the final two quests!

Well here is the second Halloween Updates!
Skins:
A new skin has just been added! At the bottom of your page you will now see Halloween - Dark this is the 2nd and final halloween skin this year! Like the others it will be gone on November 1st, 2008 so get all the use you want out of it now!
Quests:
Part 3 of 5 has been released!! Click Here to go to the 3rd part of the quest! This quest is all about the Haunted Mansion!
I thought i might give you some cool facts about the haunted mansion you might want to read before taking the quest:
- In the Grand Ballroom, Great Caesar's Ghost can be seen sitting at the dining table! Cleopatra does appear in the ballroom room, but she is sitting on the chandelier, not at the table.
- The Haunting was the movie that inspired the "breathing" door effect in the Corridor of Doors
- In the Phantom Manor The Bride appears in the Endless Hallway. The Bride is a key figure in the Phantom Manor storyline. The other Mansions do not have a set storyline. Also, their Endless Hallways contains a floating candelabra instead of The Bride.
- In all the mansions the King and Queen in the graveyard are using A wooden board they've placed over a tombstone for a makeshift teeter-totter. Other recreational activities going on in the graveyard: Bicycle riding, tea party, swinging, and of course singing.
- 'Grim Grinning Ghosts' is one of the greatest Disney anthems ever. It was expertly written by Disney imagineer Xavier Atencio. Buddy Baker was the man who composed the music for 'Grim Grinning Ghosts'.
- In Magic Kingdom's Haunted Mansion the Wolf howl is a supernatural sound that can be heard while waiting in line during the day however at night you will hear thunder.
- The talented Mrs. Audley portrayed the evil Lady Tremaine in Walt Disney's Cinderella and the Voice for Madme Leota. By the way, the *face* of Madame Leota is not Audley. The lady who provided that service was Leota Toombs, one of the imagineers who worked on the attraction. Fitting last name, isn't it?
- In the Phantom Manor the Séance Room you can see Windows through which thunderclouds can be seen.
- At first, The Haunted Mansion was called simply "The Haunted House." But as the attraction evolved a storyline was added. The story dealt with a family with the surname of Bloodstone who all died horrible deaths in the Mansion and still haunt the place. Hence the new name of "Bloodstone Manor." The Bloodstone family theme was eventually dropped however, the name was changed into the "Haunted Mansion", all storylines were excised, and the attraction became simply a retirement home for old ghosts.
- The "Museum of the Weird" was originally supposed to be placed at the exit of the Haunted Mansion. It was intended to be a showcase of odd and unusual items that the Disney Imagineers cooked up. A pirate wax museum was going to be located where Pirates of the Caribbean now is. With the advent of audio-animatronics, it was decided to use this new technology to make the pirates fully animated figures in a elaborate boat ride.
- In Magic Kingdom's Haunted Mansion the grill in front of the foyer fireplace is shaped like a bat.
- Except for the few books that are being "moved by ghostly hands", all of the shelves, paneling, and books in the library are actually paintings on a canvas. This is not noticeable at all in the gloom and darkness of the ride.
Here are the rest of the quests you might want to also do and the dates for the final two quests!
